Dale,

The limit for the varchar field type is 254 bytes (or characters), if you want 
a bigger field for text use the memo longvarchar field type - it has a limit 
of 65535 bytes.

For some instructions on how to change database field types and lengths for 
the bibliographic database see -

regards

David
